Growing up there was an ad on the radio each year around arbor day. A grizzled old man's voice says "when I was growing up, my dad and I would go to the forest each year on arbor day to plant some trees." It encouraged the same behaviour. A forest is kind of by definition at capacity for how many trees will grow there. Planting a tree elsewhere means it will not suffer from the canopy blocking all it's light. So many saplings senselessly murdered by well-meaning wordcels.
